What do you think? Look, Mr.
MacGyver, you gave your little testimonial for Earl.
It was very nice.
Earl asked if you could sit in on the interview.
I said fine.
But if you persist in prolonging this interview, I'm afraid I'm gonna have to ask you to leave, because as you can see, we are a little understaffed around here.
You know, you haven't listened to one word he's said.
Well, maybe I heard it before.
Well, maybe you haven't.
(SIGHING) Okay.
What's on your mind, Earl? Well, uh, just that I figured out I'm responsible for--for me.

(SCOFFS) .
Hinkley's back in business Bigger than ever.

You're nuts! Rote! Now what? (CARTRIDGE CLICKING) You're about Dent's size.
You got the ski mask? Yeah.
We own Dent.
DENT: Just so you don't think I'm gettin' cozy or anything, I start lookin' for an apartment today.
Ah, don't worry about it.
Hey, listen, Earl.
You're gonna make it.
Don't let Montana scare you, okay? I'll try not to.
Hey, Dent! Are you crazy? What are you guys doin'? I can't be see n with you guys.
Get out of here! Chicken Habit got robbed last night.
The assistant manager got shot up pretty good.
What? They say the assailant was a big guy.
Wore a ski mask.
Carried this weapon.
You're framin' me? Whatever it takes.
Hinkley pays, or you're back in the slammer.
Now, I got your trike out of impound.
Pick it up at Oscar's.
Call me at this number before 2:00, or else the cops get the gun.
(MOTORCYCLES REVVING) Dent? Earl? .
DENT: Upstairs Hey, where you goin', man? I got a problem.
Yeah, no kiddin'.
Did you know that Chicken Habit was robbed last night? Yeah.
Derrick's gonna be okay.
I called the hospital.
Earl No! I never shot anybody in my life.
Good.
(SIGHING) So why'd you miss your appointment with Montana? Because I know who committed the robbery.
So why don't you call the police? Because the gun that was used has my fingerprints on it.
How? Oh, a guy I used to ride with pulled it on me and I took it away.
He was wearin' gloves.
So he's settin' you up, right? Not if I ride with him again.
I gotta call him at 2:00.
(STAMMERING) Ride with him where? Who is this guy? (SIGHING) His name's Jerry Kluge.
We got busted together seven years ago.
A dude named Hinkley ratted on us.
Kluge wants revenge.
So that's between them, right? Except that Hinkley's hideout is way out in the boonies, and I'm the only one that knows where.
Look, I'm just gonna ride with Kluge till I get the gun.
No, no, that doesn't make any sense at all.
Why don't you just tell Montana what happened? Oh, right, sure.
.
She's gonna believe me MacGyver, you in here? Oh, no.
All right, all right, don't panic.
I'll talk to her first, okay? You stay here.
Well, howdy, Ms.
Montana.
MONTANA: So, you hear from him? Yeah, as a matter of fact, I did.
And? He's being set up.
Oh! Oh! He is being set up? That is a new one.
Can't you come up with something original? .
It happens to be the truth (MONTANA SCOFFING) Yeah? So why doesn't he tell me himself? Because he's afraid you won't believe him.
Well, he's probably right.
You know what? You're not too sympathetic , are you? I am a parole agent, not a nanny, all right? (GRUNTING) Well, if you'd give him a chance, he might be able to prove he's worth something.
(SCOFFS) (SCREAMING) Yeah, right.
I thou the level.
I am.
(SCOFFING) Come on! You were hiding him.
You helped him get away.
I didn't think he'd run.
(SCOFFING) Look, Ms.
Montana, I want the system to work the way it's supposed to, okay? Yeah? Well, in Earl Dent's case it's gonna, 'cause I'm sending him right back to prison.
That would be a mistake.
Look, he is a high-control parolee, a 10.
Now he's gone PAL.
End of story.
A 10, huh? Yeah.
He's just a number to you, is that it? Sometimes that's all it boils down to.
Not with Dent! He wants to go straight.
Do you know that? Maybe just wanting it isn't enough.
It's a start! Oh, it is nothing! Believe me, I have been through this with hundreds, thousands of these cases.
Again with the numbers.
Don't you think it'd be a good idea if you took your job a little more personally? Personally? How about junkies for parents? Is that personal enough for you? And they were always talkin' about wanting to go straight.
You know something? Talk's cheap.
I'm sorry about your parents.
But you are wrong about Dent.
I don't think so.
Will you at least give me a chance to get him back? ? (LAUGHING) You think you can find him If you give me enough time, yes, I do.
Okay.
You got 24 hours.
I'm, uh, sending a complete history on Jerry Kluge.
THORNTON: Criminal record, known associates, everything.
Yeah, it's comin' through now.
Read about known associate Pete Dash.
He's in prison, so if you need an entree, he may be the guy.
All right.
Thanks, Pete.
Oh, by the way, I did find the address on that phone number you gave me.
.
Yeah, go ahead Hold on.
Uh, it's the Handle Bar, That's a biker hangout, isn't it? Yeah, I think so.
Well, what are you gonna do? Hang out.
Ah, they'd never buy it.
Gotcha.
(PEOPLE CHATTERING) ??(ROCK MUSIC PLAYING) Tap or bottle? Tomato juice.
I had a rough night, okay? ROTE: The whole thing is fallin' apart, Kluge.
How come he hasn't called? It ain't 2:00 yet.
I don't know, Kluge.
Even with Dent, there's only five of us.
We can't even convoy, man.

.
Howdy.
He's all right Fixes anything.
Oh, uh, Mechanic, maybe you can take a look at somethin' on my trike? You bet.
You're out of your mind, comin' here.
They'll kill you.
Well, you didn't leave me much choice, now, did you? Sure I did.
You could have just forgot about me.
No, there's where you're wrong.
What can I say? You're all right.
Well, so are you, Earl.
So are you.
Okay.
You want me to go have it out with Montana? Let's do it.
Well, we can't just yet.

Won't be back till morning.
.
Ah, how convenient Then we have the place all to ourselves.
MACGYVER: Uh, you know, this guy might be handier to you if you kept him alive.
You wanted Hinkley to know who ripped him off, this guy could give him the message.
.
That's a good idea You think you can give Hinkley that message for me? Oh, sure, sure.
Yeah, anything.
Then you get on your bike and ride.
And you tell Hinkley the next time I'm comin' after him.
Out! Vamoose! On second thought, I think I'll tell him myself.
(GUN FIRING) Dump the body in the woods.
Get the rest of the bikes in here, in case Hinkley comes back early.
.
Let's check this joint out (GUN COCKING) Well, all right.
(WHOOPING) Look at this, boys.
Died and gone to heaven.
ROTE: Man, with this kind of money, we can go to paradise.
Someplace like Reno! Look at this.
Hey, Kluge! HAWKINS: Take a look at what we found.
This was on Mechanic's bike.
What's this, man? I haven't the slightest idea.
I've never seen that thing before in my life.
What's this? ! I don't know! He's a cop I ain't no cop! A cop? DENT: What'd you get me into here, Kluge? There could be more on the way.
It's cool.
If he's a cop, we got ourself a hostage.
Dent, keep a gun on him.
Come here.
Drop it, Dent! I mean now! You four, come on out of there with your hands up! Real easy, boys.
You don't know what you're doin', Montana.
Don't even talk to me, Dent! You ought to be ashamed of yourself.
MacGyver went to bat for you.
Oh, you two know each other, huh? Good thing I came along, huh? (MONTANA EXCLAIMING) Get off of me! You weigh a ton! Get up! Yeah, real good.
(MONTANA GRUNTING) I still say we should waste 'em.
Right.

It'll look like an accident, and we'll be home free, baby.
And rich.
Yeah, no sense lettin' this stuff go to waste.
Wrap it up.
Load it in the van.
Move.
I wish you guys would have come to me in the first place! We tried, okay? (MONTANA SCOFFING) (WHISPERING) I need some noise so I can break that beaker.
What kind of noise ? Uh Talk louder.
What do we talk about ? Anything.
I just need time to cut these ropes.
Let Montana cut 'em.
She's got the fang s for it.
(SPEAKING LOUDER) That is totally uncalled for! I was just trying to do my job.
If you hadn't run, we wouldn't be here in the first place.
DENT: What was I supposed to do? Throw myself at your mercy? (SCOFFING) you'd believe what I told you, right? Why? Why should I ever believe a loser like you? I am not a loser.
Yeah? Well, you sure could have fooled me.
! Hey, keep it down in there If you're so swift, how come you come here without any backup? How am I supposed to be able to call in backup when I don't even know where we are? DENT: Oh, that makes you real smart, don't it? MONTANA: Oh! Have you ever tried to follow a tracing screen and drive 80 miles an hour? There is not a lot of spare moments for sightseeing! Well, maybe if you weren't such a dragon lady, ! you'd have a partner to do those things for you Well, maybe if there weren't so many sociopaths like you running around, we could afford partners! Really ? (WHISPERING) Okay, you can stop now.
(CONTINUING TO SPEAK LOUDLY) Hey, at least I'm trying.
! (MONTANA SCOFFING) Not that it matters to you Even though you are my freakin' parole agent.
I mean, if a guy's PA won't give him a break , who will? Oh, now I suppose you're gonna try and tell me how to do my job! Hey! Huh? You can stop.
I'm done.
Oh.
Oh.
About time.
(SNIFFING) (ROTE COUGHING) (GRUNTING) Ah, come on.
Allow me.
Good job.
(GANG CHATTERING) (SIGHING) You think we can make a break for it? No, they got too many guns.
We gotta even things up a bit.
Yes, sir, yes, sir.
(WHISPERING) What are you doin'? Mixin' stuff.
When this dries, it should explode on impact.
How long to dry? Not long, I hope.
Tell him to hurry up.
We're gonna split.
Get down there.
Better hurry.
Hawkins is on his way.
DENT: How's it work? .
When he steps on it, it should explode a little All right, take cover.
Hey! Give me a hand in here.
Go see what he wants.

It's not about that.
It's about, um, work.
Work? Work's great.
Couldn't be better! I love it! You love it? Hey, it's me.
Should we even tell him? Tell me what? I don't know, I wouldn't want hi m to feel obligated or anything.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, but, I mean, it's such a great idea you had.
I mean, I really do need a partner, and with a grant from the Phoenix Foundation, it's perfect.
Wait a minute.
A grant? Yeah.
Did you say "partner"? Yeah.
Montana needs a partner.
Yeah, you know, muscle.

You are coming aboard as a grade three provisional employee, and Grade three? Yeah.
A grade three? What do you mean, "grade three"? What am I? (SIGHING) Some kind of number again? You had a number for a reason, Dent.
What do you want from me? All I ever wanted was a little understanding , okay? MONTANA: Oh, now, wait just a minute here.
DENT: No, no, no, you wait just a minute here.
Do you want this job or not? Well, I think I might be overqualified for the job.
Overqualified at what, making license plates? I can make a lot of number s on 'em, and they're pretty darn good, too.
Oh, yeah, and I bet the lowest one is your IQ.
I can tell right now, it's gonna be a deligh t to work with you.
Oh, come Oh, please! No, really .
You make me sick.
